I don't think so. See the commit message. This implmementation is on par
with the bonding interface - there is no guarantee whatsoever that with
the bonding interface bonded requests actually run at the same time. It
says hopefully these submissions run together. That's what I do in this
patch too for execlists, hence the 'weak' clause in the commit message.
